Re: mazda caliper question
There is a dual piston caliper upgrade thread using those calipers on ClubProtege...IIRC.

I think dave0r, the author, is on here. Would this actually transfer to mx3s though?

Re: mazda caliper question
MX-3 is a BG variant. It is basically similar to the Escort and Protege, however some additional differences may exist.
